Many people are interested in what is called neurofeedback or EEG biofeedback training, a generic mental training method which makes the trainee consciously aware of the general activity in the brain. This method shows great potential at improving many mental capabilities and exploring consciousness. Other people want to do experiments with brain-computer interfaces or just want to have a look at their brain at work.

Unfortunately, commercial EEG devices are generally too expensive to become a hobbyist tool or toy.

The OpenEEG project is about making plans and software for do-it-yourself EEG devices available for free (as in GPL). It is aimed toward amateurs who would like to experiment with EEG. However, if you are a pro in any of the fields of electronics, neurofeedback, software development etc., you are of course welcome to join the mailing-list and share your wisdom.

LPC11U14 ARM microcontroller development board is a module LPC11U14FBD48/201 CPU based on ARM Cortex - M0 from NXP . This module can work at speeds up to 48 MHz CPU . This module is also equipped with an internal bootloader , so no longer need an external device programm . Programming via the bootloader can be done using a USB connection ( FTDI , not the internal USB controller ) .
